General counsel, Latin America | Bridgestone Americas

About

Bridgestone has long held a strong presence in Latin America and now, through the various subsidiaries that form its Latin American Tire division, operates more tire sales outlets than any rival manufacturer in the region. Adam Balfour joined Bridgestone as senior legal counsel in 2014 and was appointed general counsel for Latin America two years later, taking on legal responsibility for one of the company’s core markets and working closely with Bridgestone’s various regional business units and subsidiaries. The Latin American tire market has been subject to a number of challenges in recent months and Balfour is credited with helping to keep the company competitive through his core skill of ‘adapting rapidly to the challenges of a hugely demanding role in an extremely diverse set of markets’. Before moving in-house, Balfour worked in the capital markets group at Kirkland & Ellis. He began his career at Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison.
